Unfortunately, the workaround mentioned above seems not actually to have helped. When I first tried it, I was able to use desktop effects for about an hour with no problems. I then rebooted, however, and X froze again within a minute of the desktop appearing. I haven't been able to reproduce the stable behavior.
I also noticed that X.org.log says "(WW) intel(0): Option "AccelMethod" is not used," so apparently this option is no longer valid, which explains why it didn't actually help as a workaround. Is there any other way to disable UXA acceleration in Karmic, or other thoughts on how we might work around this issue? -- [i945] [i945] (UXA) Intel Corporation 82945G/GZ Integrated Graphics Controller [8086:2772] (rev 02) freezes https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/445056 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
